Xiaoxiao thought for a mont, and felt that such decorations were not pretty enough. This felt no different from soone else’s wedding chamber; it wasn’t romantic at all.
"Sister Wang, do you have any red gauze curtains?"
"Yes, what do you need them for?"
"I just want to decorate the room."
Although it couldn’t be made as beautiful as decorating a grand bed, surrounding the whole kang with gauze curtains would create a very hazy and aesthetically pleasing effect. The feeling of the two of them getting on the kang would surely be different.
She also communicated her requirents to the Embroiderer, who began to work non-stop on creations similar to curtains. All of Sister Wang’s embroiderers were put to work by Xiaoxiao, none sitting idle.
After arranging everything, Xiaoxiao began to think of sothing else.
"Sister Wang, let’s go to the Silver Pavilion."
"Alright." Wang Xiangxiang readily agreed, feeling a mysterious excitent as she watched everything Xiaoxiao was doing. She longed to feel the sa exhilaration of doing sothing for her beloved.
Soon, the two arrived at the town’s Silver Pavilion, where jewelry was sold.
"Xiaoxiao, do you want to buy any jewelry?"
"I want to buy rings, one for myself and one for my dear."
As a person from modern tis, Xiaoxiao couldn’t escape the cliche. Couple rings symbolized eternal love, and she hoped that she and her bargain husband could be together forever.
She just wasn’t sure whether such things were available here.
After looking around, they finally found sothing resembling rings in a corner, "Xiao’er, let try this ring."
Xiao’er handed the ring to her, and although it fit well, Xiaoxiao felt it was too cumberso and wasn’t satisfied with the design, "Xiao’er, do you have a style that n can wear too?"
"No."
"Then do you have any styles that both n and won can wear?"
"No."
Xiaoxiao had intended to settle for a pair of plain rings, but to her surprise, there were none available, "Xiao’er, is it possible to place a custom order?"
"Please wait a mont, I’ll call our Shopkeeper for this." Xiao’er wasn’t in a position to make such a decision, so he called the Shopkeeper over.
"Sir, Xiao’er told you want to custom-make rings."
"Yes, I want to custom-make rings."
"Do you have a design?"
"I can draw it out."
Xiaoxiao was speechless, having to draw so many things here with her non-artistic background.
For the sake of their matching rings, she diligently drew two finger-ring designs.
"Are these a pair?" The Shopkeeper saw the sketch—two rings, one larger than the other, both curved. When placed together, the curves ford a perfect heart shape; they were delicate and not at all cumberso like the others in the shop.
"Yes, they symbolize that I am willing to support you and be by your side for life."
Wang Xiangxiang was incredibly envious; these rings held more aning than any token of love she knew, "Xiaoxiao, these are too beautiful."
Xiaoxiao smiled and continued, "Can you make these before the thirteenth of this month?"
"The ti is too short. Other Silver Pavilions probably couldn’t, but we can, only there’s a small favor to ask."
"Shopkeeper, please speak frankly."
"Would you allow our Silver Pavilion to sell this design afterwards?"
Xiaoxiao’s brows furrowed. There was no ti left and the designs were already drawn. Even if she said no, couldn’t they replicate it anyway? But this was her token of love; she didn’t want others wearing it.
"Shopkeeper, this pair is a token of love between my dear and . I want them to be unique and not for others. However, I can draw another design for you to sell, does that sound good?"
Upon hearing the beginning of her response, the Shopkeeper thought it was a lost cause, but his face lit up with a smile when she made her offer, "It’s a deal."
